<ul>
<li>A static value you define</li>
<li>A component written to the JavaBeans architecture</li>
<li>A property of another component on the form</li>
<li>A call to a method of the form or one of its components. You can choose from a list of methods that return the appropriate data type.</li>
<li>Code you defined that is included in the generated code</li>
